Rhythms of the World Anthology / USA / 1992
A compilation of concert footage, interviews, and narration by producers Peter Gabriel and Bobby McFerrin, this 57-minute film spends too much time on gyrating hips and back-up dancers when it should be focusing on the history and social significance of singers like Fela Kuti, whose songs gave a voice to the downtrodden and oppressed of impoverished Nigeria. In one instance, a short introduction to Fela segues into a stone-faced Hispanic man singing about shooting his girl with a pistol (the song climaxes with “…I’ll blow your head off…BAM! BAM! BAM!”), transforming this into the most uncomfortable and poorly-constructed documentary I’ve ever seen. If you’ve ever wondered why there aren’t more music-oriented programs on television, this is why.
